1 MUSIC GRADE-LEVEL EXPECTATIONS May, 2007

2 MUSIC GRADE LEVEL EXPECTATIONS The (GLEs) represent content that Missouri students are expected to know at each grade level. The GLEs are not a curriculum. They are, however, the learner outcomes that should be assessed at the local level to appraise student achievement. The GLEs should not be taught in isolation. Rather, they should be bundled together where possible into well-planned, sequential, and targeted lessons to accomplish district objectives to meet the Show-Me. Alignment to the Missouri Show-Me standards is found in the row titled State. The row titled refers to the nine standards from MENC: The Association for Music Education. The following coding system should be used to reference the Music GLEs: STRANDS: PP = Product/Performance EP = Elements and Principles of Music AP = Artistic Perceptions IC = Interdisciplinary Connections HC = Historic and Cultural Contexts BIG IDEAS: Use the numeral preceding the Big Idea CONCEPTS: Use the capital letter designation EX: The GLE identify standard pitch notation in the treble clef can be found in the Elements of Music strand (EP), under the first Big Idea Develop and apply the knowledge and skills to read and notate music (1), in the concept Melodic Notation (A), in grade 4. Therefore, the code for that particular GLE is: EP1A4. Generally avoid the use of periods or dashes in the coding.
